ORFEO
Film Screening

Virgilio Villoresi's ORFEO is a fantasy film that replays the Orpheus myth in an ornate, handcrafted 1960s Milan, where a lonesome pianist falls in love at first sight with the beguiling Eura, loses her and follows her into a heavily saturated underworld. The film is adapted from Dino Buzzati's 1969 graphic novel 'Poema a fumetti' and sits somewhere between the worlds of Tim Burton and Jean Cocteau. It screens at the VIFF Centre in the Lochmaddy Studio as part of a run from 20 to 23 November 2026. Tickets are available through VIFF's what's-on listings.
